"Magic" Power Saver?

Recently, it may be the impact of electricity shortages and national power restriction policies. Some residents feel that home appliances such as heaters, electric kettles, hair dryers, and induction cookers are used at home. They consume more power and can seriously speed up the rotation of the meter. Speed, of course, comes with soaring electricity bills. It is precisely because of this that some unscrupulous businesses have seized the mentality of residents wanting to save money and power, and launched a "magic" power saver on the Internet. Most residents actually believe that there are energy-saving “30%~50%” power savers in the market and they all start to buy, which also makes those online businesses make a fortune.

Some Internet merchants slogan "Power Saver" under the banner of "Power Saver." Some Tianjin citizens discovered after purchase that the so-called "Power Saver" is just a simple capacitor and plug, which does not achieve the power-saving effect.

People's Daily reported on November 16 that some Internet merchants peddled “save energy” products under the banner of “power saving”, and some Tianjin citizens discovered after purchase that the so-called “power saver” was just a simple capacitor and plug. Can not achieve the power-saving effect.

Huaxi Dushi Bao reported that recently, a whirlwind of energy-saving electricity was blowing up on the Internet. Can we use this kind of energy saver to save energy? Can you easily save 50% on a $15 Power Saver? So the reporter personally bought a Saver to experiment and found that the power saving effect was almost zero. Deputy Chief Engineer of Chengdu Power Bureau Hong Xing Brigade and professional electrician Jun Yang believe that the saying that Power Saver can save power is not reliable. The power supply department also stated that it is a scam to insert power savers.

According to the reporter, "Saver" was used as a keyword to search on a certain shopping site. A total of more than 2,200 related products were found, with prices ranging from RMB 15 to RMB 10,000. These home energy savers are mostly similar to a plug connected to a large battery-shaped object. The use of such energy-saving products on the network can save electricity by 20% to 50%. “Indoor use is plug-and-play, with no effect on the electrical circuit.” The use is extremely simple and convenient. However, the actual power saving effect is unknown.

A Power Saver with the largest amount of sales on the Internet is priced at RMB 75. The seller said that its working principle is to stabilize voltage, balance current, reduce line losses, and generate a return flow to achieve power-saving effects. And many buyers commented that anyway, it is not expensive, try to buy it.

This type of power saver, which is said to have 50% power savings, is reportedly not currently sold in major formal electronic markets and multiple branded appliance sales points.

If every household is using this kind of power-saver, which is popular in the recent network, each can save 30% to 50%, then the country needs to limit electricity, and each household can use more than one Saver to solve the problem. Is electricity stressful? We sensibly analyze that maybe we ourselves also think that the Power Saver products sold by the Internet recently are not reliable.
